Nickel-cadmium batteries - SAFT BATTERIES
Main applications
Ni-Cd SPH batteries are typically used in starting and power back-up applications :
Engine starting
UPS
Switchgear
Data and information system
Switching and transmission
They can be used in applications that have frequent or infrequent discharges. The typical discharge range is from 1 second to 30 minutes.
Plate Technology
Well-proven sintered positive electrode, a compact plastic bonded negative electrode ( pbe) .
Benefits
The SPH batteries are an alternative to VRLA batteries, and provide your installation with :
low maintenance, thanks to gases recombination within cells to prevent water loss under normal conditions
smaller capacity installed, thanks to high power in a constraint voltage window
interchangeability with other batteries
no temperature constraints
high resistance to electrical abuse
long lifetime of over 20 years
SPH batteries are designed for applications demanding a relatively high current over short periods and can provide very high currents of up to 20 times the battery' s nominal capacity.
Capacity range of 11 Ah to 320 Ah.
